• Pros
  • The extraordinary architectural, religious and literary heritage make Saint Petersburg one of the most beautiful cities in the world.
  • The intense cultural life, with many music and drama festivals all year long.
  • The delightful influence of the sea, with its harbour activity, the islands and boats, offers many exploring options.
• Cons
  • The growing presence of the mafia, the sad sight of the new economy's rejects, the way in which corruption and prostitution have become a feature of everyday life.
  • A still very bureaucratic approach to tourism which leaves little freedom to individual travellers.
